Solidaritäts- und Anti-Apartheid-Bewegungen in der Schweiz – Südafrika-Boykott
Beatrice Felber Rochat erinnert sich im Gespräch mit dem BAB Archivar Dag Henrichsen an ihr frühes Engagement in der von christlichen Frauen gegründeten transnationalen Solidaritätsgruppe «Südafrika-Boykott». Die Boykott-Gruppe organisierte gegen Ende der 1970er Jahre öffentliche Anti-Apartheid Aktionen in Basel, trat für den Boykott von Konsumprodukten und von multinationalen Firmen und Banken, die mit dem Apartheidregime Beziehungen unterhielten, ein und solidarisierte sich mit der afrikanischen Bevölkerung. Felber reflektiert über konkrete Solidaritäts- und Boykottarbeit in den 1980er Jahren wie auch über die Staatsobservation und «Fichierung» von Anti-Apartheidsaktivist:innen durch die Schweizer Regierung.
Dieser Gesprächsauszug ist der dritte in einer Reihe von Podcasts zur Solidaritäts- und Anti-Apartheid-Bewegung in der Schweiz.
